Fuzzy-Based Medical Image Processing
Abstract
Medical Image Processing (MIP) is a set of tools applied over medical images, which consists of several components such as image acquisition, enhancement, segmentation, restoration, etc. The most important component of MIP is medical image segmentation used in Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems used for detection of abnormalities in medical images. This chapter presents an overview and the importance of soft computing techniques in solving the problems of medical imaging. The authors highlight the significance of fuzzy-based clustering and similar methods for MIP and its applications. Fuzzy C-Means Clustering Method (FCM) is found the most suitable method among existing clustering methods for medical images. FCM addresses the problem of over-segmentation and helps in improvement of diagnosis accuracy. Application of optimization tool causes the reduction of execution time. A comparison of fuzzy-based methods over conventional methods suggests that neuro-fuzzy system as hybrid approach is an efficient method for medical image analysis.
